Currently at 8,7,5. From the looks of things it doesn't pay to upgrade the Iron mines until the timber and clay are upgraded- I haven't run out of Iron yet.

Yes... keep Timber and Clay about two levels above Iron until you start building things that require more Iron.

I'm at 8-8-6, and growing.

So, when do I get to invent the airplane?

Plundered my first two abandoned villages lost 2 spears total so far. Got enough loot to buy 5 replacements:)


How long until I can start attacking the inactive villages in my quadrant? The abandoned vilages are all 5 or more hours away.

Looks like a cool game. Might give it a try in July when I have a bit more time on my hands.

It doesn't take much to play, you could get by with logging on a few times a day for 5 minutes each time. There is a lot of hurry-up-and-wait.

What I did was simply click on each one nearby that was below 60 points.  It doesn't take long to get above that, so you know they aren't playing.  It'll tell you when you can attack.

3 raids pays for the wood needed for a spearman...

I just started sending tripwire spears to people in my neighborhood this afternoon. I currently have about 80 spears/ 40 swords, with about 30 more in production que.
I seem to keep running out of wood, current levels are 11/9/9.  I get a lot more resources from farming a 64 pt village 30 minutes from mine than I do from mining undecided
I'm trying to build up troops right now because there are 4 villages real close to me between 50-75pts that will come out of noob protection tomorow.

I'm wondering if I should concentrate on creating even more troops, or upping my mining levels?

I'm farming like six of them right now, it kinda dwarfs my asset abilities(12/10/5).  So far I've been able to balance my expenditures real well.  Wood is in high demand.

Just got light calvary!  High speed, lots of carrying capacity.

I've turned to farming nearby neglected villages as well. I'm at 11-11-8 on my resource buildings. Almost to the point that I can build a stable and start turning out the horsies. Grislyatoms and I have exchanged tripwire spearmen, I need to send some to the other nearby tribe members too.

I attacked an 81 pt village this morning that had 20 spears in it, I took a handful of losses and wiped him out. I attacked again 2 hours later and he had 10 spears again.
Wondering what I should do:
1. Do nothing and make him lose sleep.
2. Tell him I'm done attacking him as he's proven to be an active village
3. Milk him like a bitch. laugh

I currently have a lvl 7 wall and keep about 75 swords in the village, nothing near me is going to be a threat for awhile angel

Finally had a bad raid.
Sent 30 spearmen to a low level village nearby...expecting it to be unmanned.
He had about 25 or so spearmen.  Managed to kill about half but lost all mine.

So I sent about 20 axemen and a couple of light cavalry.
They took out the last 7 spearmen and brought back 223 of each resource...

Then I sent 30 spearmen and 25 swordsmen to clean up.  Getting about 400 of each resource. Smiley
